This guide is so that you can back up and play your legally purchased Game Cube games via an sd card on your wii. Anyone asking how or where to get copies of games will be infracted and or possibly banned, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Things to consider

Bear in mind that this is still a work in progress, it still has bugs and things are not perfect, cut scenes lag and jump etc but as far as i can tell upto now games play fine

What you will need

1) A softmodded wii following the Softmod Any wii guide
2) A way to rip your Game cube game - Cleanrip
3) A compatible sd card formatted to fat32 to store the games (preferably SDHC cards up to 32GB class 10 are recommended, formatted with 64kb clusters)
4) A PC
5) This file
6) A game cube controller to play them ;)

5) Navigate to the DiscEx folder and here you want to drag your .iso or.gcm file onto the DiscEx.exe, this will convert the file for use with DML.

6) Once completed you should have a folder named with a title id and some files within mainly a game.gcm or .iso file. This folder should be moved to the sd card and placed within the game folder. You should have something that looks like this -

Chapter 3 (optional)

If you want to compress the game file then do this with the file before you drag and drop it on DiscEx -

1. open up your DML folder
2. open GCMUtility0.5 folder
3. open GCMUtility
4. click add .iso
5. locate and add .iso or .gcm
6. when you click open you will see the game in the box
7. check the little box next to the banner
8. then click shrink
9. save the file to somewhere (somewhere where you will remember)
10. then go about doing the rest of the guide with the small shrunk file

FYI - Some games will not work compressed but will when they are not so just bare this in mind

Final Chapter

3) Install the wad file that is included in the pack (this will overwrite your CMIOS and so you will no longer be able to play backups via disc although you will still be able to play originals)

4) Return the HBC and load up Neogamma

5) Press down on the wiimote to Load games and change the option to load GC Games via DML then press up and press A to search for games.

6) Select your game and press A

7) Very important - You musrt have a Wii game or GC game in the Wii or it will boot you back to the system menu!

8) That is it, play your game

Optional - Play from Wiiflow

1) Grab this revision of Wiiflow
2) Rename the file boot.dol and replace your boot.dol file in your Wiiflow folder
3) Load Wiiflow in the usual manner
4) Navigate to the bottom right of the screen and press B on the Wiimote until You come to your GC games
5) Select game and play (same as the rest of the guide applies, You must have a game in the Wii)

Optional - Play from CFG Usbloader

1) Grab cfg usbloader from here
2) Rename the file boot.dol and replace your boot.dol file in your Cfg folder
3) Load Cfg in the usual manner
4) All games should show up in your main screen

3) The usb partition must be the first or the only partition and for Dios Mios that partition has to be formatted in 32kb clusters
4) Check that the game hasn't been compressed - (some games will not work compressed)
5) Check the region of the game is the same as the console

I'm going to use this post to start compiling our own compatibility list, so if you can confirm a game working do so and I will add them here when i get the chance.

Disney's Magical Mirror uncompressed working fine, as soon as I figure out how to get it correctly compressed I will edit and tell you if it works too.

Edit: Magical mirror works fine compressed too. Tried Mario golf toadstool tour compressed and it did not work, going to try uncompressed as soon as the program is done making the files. I do not expect it to work, according to gbt list it will not work on rev 21 of dml but did work on rev 19.

Mario golf toadstool tour uncompressed is working......yay! That is one game the whole family has missed since the dog got ahold of it.

Have just tried the Wiiflow mod of this and it works great especially since i already have Wiiflow and nand emulation its everything under one app

I have read that if the speed of the sd card is higher it will be better, I'm Using a sd HS 4, but want a sd hs 10, it is true?!

That's a good question. I have read that the speed ratings are not always the most relevant part of the card depending on the device/application. I will have to find the info I read on that, it was on sea developers site.
